Scholars, Scribes, our first contest/giveaway for Cryptoshots is complete and we are moving on to round two! We have another selection of PIMP, SCHOLAR, SCRIBE, and HSBI to give away over the course of this next contest so I hope we will see another solid collection of entries!
For those of you not super familiar with CryptoShots I'd like to introduce you to someone:
This is TeknoPolly!
He is an epic character NFT that can currently be won in the CryptoShots Discord by interacting with the Discord Bot version of himself! He can also be bought on WAX and provides a variety of benefits to players of the CryptoShots discord game and the 3d browser game too!
I honestly expected some of the entries for the first round of our lore contest to include him in one way or another but since they didn't I've decided our next round of our Lore writing should be focused on him.
This time we are going to do things a little differently! Let's take TeknoPolly on an adventure!
This giveaway will be in a "Write Your Own Adventure" Format. I'll be writing a short piece below that begins Polly's storyline.
Continue it in the comments in under 250 words and then tag two people you think might like to continue on from where you left off. With a variety of people entering we could end up taking him on quite an adventure!
I'll be distributing SCHOLAR and PIMP to all commentors that follow the entry requirements and the longest continuous story will receive a bonus of SCRIBE and HSBI for every writer that contributed to it!
I am also tagging the entrants of our last CryptoShots giveaway and a couple of others that are usually up for this kind of thing!
Remember the only rules are to continue the story and the comment must be under 250 words!
I will distribute the prizes once the timer on this post has run down in 7 days.
Good luck and let's see what kind of shenanigans we can get a robotic parrot into!
Reboot Initiated- Damage Detected- Corrupted Memory Unit. ERROR. Reboot Initiated.... Damage Detected- Corrupted Memory Unit... ERROR
The messages filled Polly's visual fields and overwhelmed its processors. It routed the messages to audio output, clearing it's sensors and detecting nothing but darkness.
"DAMAGE DETECTED- CORRUPT MEMORY UNIT. ERROR."
Polly could hear itself blaring the messages into the darkness... until... Light... Then...
"What is that?"
"Look! It's some kind of robot... a bird model I think. Where did it come from?"
"I don't know, leave it there, it's trash! Listen to it, it's malfunctioning anyway."
"It might be worth something, I can probably fix it."
Two humanoids in exosuits came into focus as Polly's sensors adjusted to the added light.
"DAMAGE DETECTED- CORRUPT MEMORY UNIT. ERROR. MISSION FAILED."
"Mission? Wonder what it's doing all the way out here?"
Polly struggled to move away as the humanoid reached for it and picked it up. It's steel and carbon fiber wings feebly flapping in protest.
"Here's the problem, someone's shot it with a laser pistol. It's memory's been burned out by the shot. I can't fix it's memory, but two minutes in the shop and everything else will work fine. Told you."
"Fine then Damson, bring it back to the ship. Not like we found anything else worthwhile on this wreck anyway."
"DAMAGE DETECTED- CORRUPT MEMORY UNIT. ERROR."
"You better be able to shut that damn thing up Damson..."
